Ruby Haunt Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When everyone seems to hide
You will find me
Holding it all inside
When its light
Regain your sense of pride
All is right
Died
Died
Died
Died
Died
Died
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
On the weekdays
I can never win
And the weekends
Im already spread so thin
Moving slowly
Going nowhere
Hold me closer
Show me you care
Care
Care
Care
Care
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
You will find me
Waiting by your side
The lyrics to Ruby Haunt's song Postcard describe a sense of loneliness and internal struggle. The singer is holding everything inside, waiting for someone to be there with them. The use of the phrase "holding it all inside" suggests that the singer is grappling with their own emotions, and doesn't feel comfortable sharing them with others. However, the repetition of "waiting by your side" at the end of the song suggests that the singer is looking for connection and validation from someone else.
The second verse describes the singer's frustration with their daily routine. On the weekdays, they can never win, and on the weekends, they are overwhelmed and overextended. The line "moving slowly, going nowhere" suggests a sense of aimlessness and lack of direction. The singer is yearning for someone to "hold me closer" and "show me you care." The repetition of "care" at the end of the verse emphasizes this longing for emotional support.
Overall, the song captures a feeling of isolation and longing for connection that many people experience at some point in their lives. The repetition of "waiting by your side" creates a sense of yearning, and the use of phrases like "holding it all inside" and "moving slowly, going nowhere" convey a sense of internal struggle and aimlessness.

Loved the video you guys had of this. It disappeared from Youtube.

@Maria H To me it's pretty obvious (but still dissapointing): It's the Kraftwerk trick. Disassociating yourself with your early stuff. Streamlining your image. Take a listen to this song. It's not representing Ruby Haunts musical direction, as it's known today.

Ashnno do you know why?

@abra schnur They removed all the links and stuff for this EP, and it makes me really sad. It's honestly one of my favorites from them!
